Research Handout for Scientists: When and how can you apply sex contextualism in your own research?
Proposed by Sarah S. Richardson in her 2022 paper, sex contextualism is a framework for operationalizing and analyzing sex in a way that attends to its context-specific forms across biomedical research. This framework has pragmatic relevance for many scientists conducting biomedical research. To help bring these ideas into the laboratory, we wrote this condensed, portable, 1-page document that answers common questions about sex contextualist approaches in experimental design, execution, and reporting. We invite you to read it over and share it with other researchers.
